Wow! I read that as One person to run the place, sell tickets, answer  
the phone, be tour guide, run the cash register and clean up! Are they  
expecting like two per day to visit?

(reminds me a bit of an ad I saw in the musician's union paper many  
yeas ago - a Disney Broadway show was looking for someone to play the  
role of Louis Armstrong - had to play the trumpet, look, sing, and  
talk like Armstrong  - and the were an "equal opportunity employer!")
